iPhone 5, Galaxy Note II named in - trial





NEW DELHI: and have presented their final lists of products that infringe their respective software patents for their upcoming trial. The two biggest smartphone makers in the world have submitted the lists that include names of products like iPhone 5, iPad 4, Galaxy Note II and Galaxy S III to the federal court of San Jose, California.
Below is the list of all the devices that the two companies have named for the upcoming trial, scheduled for March 31, 2014:
Galaxy Note II iPhone 5 Galaxy S III iPhone 4S Galaxy Note iPhone 4 Galaxy iPad 4 Galaxy S II iPad 3 Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 iPad 2 Galaxy Skyrocket iPad mini Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch iPod touch (5th eration) Galaxy Stratosphere iPod touch (4th eration) Galaxy Admire Macbook Air
Explaining the lack of newer models like iPhone 5S, 5C, Galaxy Note 3 and S4 from the respective lists, Foss Patents says, "The parties tried hard to accuse ch other's latest and grtest products, but US patent litigation is slow, which is why this 2014 trial will be about 2012 and pre-2012 products."
In April 2013, Judge Lucy Koh asked the two companies to reduce the of patent violation claims and infringing products that the jury will have to consider during the trial. Both companies are now allowed to stake infringement claims to five patent and 10 products during the trial. For ch patent, they are allowed to choose one infringement claim.
recently lost a patent claim in the US and was left with only four patents that is allegedly infringing. Thus, the South Korn juggernaut has claimed two counts of violation for one of the patents, while the remaining three patents have only one claim attached. This is "typically not nrly as useful as a whole additional patent, but better than nothing," according to Foss Patents.
, on the other hand, has claimed one count of infringement for ch of its five patents.
Below is the list of patent claims by the two companies:
:
1. Data tapping
2. Siri-style unified srch
3. Asynchronous data synchronization
4. Slide-to-unlock
5. Autocomplete

1. Non-scheduled transmission over enhanced uplink data channel; declaration of standard-essentiality to Europn Telecommuniions Standards Institute (ETSI) in May 2006
2. Signalling control information of uplink packet data service; declaration of standard-essentiality to ETSI in May 2010
3. Recording and reproducing digital and speech
4. Remote transmission system
Considering the rise in 's sales in the past few yrs, Foss Patents estimates that the damage claims should still remain quite high in this case, despite the absence of any design patents. In two rlier trials centred on design patents, has (jointly) been awarded a sum of $929 million over 's patent violation.
